fingertrouble | My first released track... (Reply)

New track released on Beatport as an exclusive today as part of the Acid Reign album, with tracks from friends of mine. A SQUEEEE! moment for me actually having a track of mine on Beatport, and later in the month should be on the other digital sites (iTunes I think, and others). Mark Archer of Altern-8 fame is on the compilation, as is CMP, Dunproofin, James Edwards, House Machine (aka

the_niallist) and OscarTG

It's a kind of Orbital affair - and a lot of fun to do, and of course if you've been around here a bit you might've guessed my love for Acid House and the influence it had on me. I started this track on Android mobile phone apps like Caustic, RD3 - Groovebox and Uloops (now PocketBand Pro) really to prove to myself and others you could create a track on those apps (they're the modern version of music toys I guess!). Then I took the loops and added VSTs, drums, synths and other 303 lines in Ableton. Most of my tracks start pretty wonky/odd, weird noises and time signatures and tempos - so it's always hard to get them to pull into something approaching a 4/4 meter!

And I hear Jeb
